Background and Education
Shatsi is the daughter of former foreign affairs minister Sam Kutesa and twin sister to Charlotte Kainerugaba the wife to president Museveni son Muhoozi Kainerugaba.[2][3][4]
She succeeded her father as MP Mawogola County after a contested election.[2]
Earlier in the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party primaries leading to the 2021 elections, Shatsi had been defeated by president Museveni's younger brother, Godfrey Aine Kaguta also known as "Sodo". Sodo's win was challenged by Shartsi prompting the NRM electoral commission to direct both candidates to run as independents.[5][6][7][8][9][10]
One day to the 2021 Uganda general elections, Sodo was advised by his family and Yoweri Museveni to withdraw from the race in favor of Shatsi. Shatsi eventually won in the general elections.[11][6][12][13][8][14][15]
Shatsi has two degrees in Lawyer.[16]
